To date, he has helped countless students succeed in the SAT/ACT, AP Exams, and SAT Subject Tests. Brandon's former students have gone on to attend institutions such as Stanford, Harvard, and Penn. In college, Brandon was hired by his university as an undergraduate chemistry tutor.
Before joining Noodle Pros, Brandon worked for several years at a large national test prep company, where he taught a variety of standardized exams, with a focus on the science sections of the new MCAT (i.e. Bio/Biochem, Chem/Phys, Psych/Soc).

Brandon understands the strengths and weaknesses of resources from different test prep companies and takes pride in tailoring sessions to students' unique needs. He realizes that succeeding in high-stakes standardized exams, such as the MCAT, often requires more than just a strong understanding of content, but rather a diverse repertoire of reliable test-taking strategies and behaviors that will consistently lead to the correct answer.
